Test the hypothesis using the P-value approach. Be sure to verify the requirements of the test.
H0: p=0.2 versus H1: p>0.2
n=200; x=55, α=0.1
Is np0(1−p)0≥10?
Yes
No
Use technology to find the P-value.

Solution :
This is the rigth tailed test .
= x / n = 55 / 200 = 0.275
P0 = 0.2
1 - P0 = 0.2
n P0 (1 - P0 ) = 200 * 0.2 * 0.8 = 32
Test statistic = z
= - P0 / [P0 * (1 - P0 ) / n]
= 0.275 - 0.2 / [(0.2 * 0.8) / 200]
= 2.65
P(z > 2.65) = 1 - P(z < 2.65) = 0.004
P-value = 0.004
= 0.1
P-value <
Reject the null hypothesis .
